Do you think that skiing in Utah is just riding chair lifts. Well, there is more to Utah than just riding high speed quads, gondolas, and trams. We have all kinds of ways to get you out to the freshest, deepest powder anywhere. Whether your blasting over the back country in a jet propelled helicopter, Utah is sure to have what you are looking for.

Helicopter Skiing and Boarding
If the lifts just aren't cutting it anymore, and you want some more excitement, perhaps Helicopter Skiing is the next step for you. When you want the fresh you can't beat getting dropped at the top of a pristine backcountry peak in a jet powered helicopter. Utah has many options for Heli Skiing and Boarding.

Snowcat Skiing and Boarding
For those with a more limited budget, Snowcat skiing can give you the same thrills as Heli Skiing but with more terrestrial mode of transportation. From inside a heated snowcat you crank your way up to the top of some of Utah's best backcountry skiing.

Alta Ski Area offers backcountry skiing thrills in Grizzly Gulch next to the Alta Ski Area. Check out www.alta.com for details.

Brian Head also has some spectacular backcountry that can be accessed via the durable snowcat. Experience the awesome red rock and deep snow backcountry of Brian Head via their cat service for a day that you won't soon forget. Check out their web page for more details: www.brianhead.com

And Finally don't forget about Powder Mountain. They've been in the snowcat and deep powder game for a long time and they can do it like no other.
